re: #142 cliffster

I hardly think that suggesting people come here illegally so they can have a child that is a citizen would be considered, “ugly, racist, dehumanizing rhetoric”.

Suggesting that a significant amount of people would do that is dehumanizing because to do that, they parents are dehumanizing the child. Most transient peoples are looking for a better life, not trying to come get free social security checks or have terrorist babies that will blow up jets in 30 years.

That a couple would have an ‘anchor baby’ is undeniable. That it would happen with any amount of regularity or be anything more than a rare exception is dehumanizing. To make it part of the national discussion as a relevant point of debate is dehumanizing.
